Extremely poor film. From it's name only it's evident it's film based on a hijacking but the fact is it takes a very small leaf out of IC 814 story for it's plot. Once our hero, Shiney Ahuja realises that his daughter is on the hijacked plane, he makes it his own mission to save her and the passengers from the hijackers. Watch this film only if you haven't watch classy Hollywood hijacking films (like Air force one etc) or even the recent IC 814 series on netflix because if you have watched them (just like me), this film will appear like a shoddy parody of all hijacking films clubbed with some one man army action. It's pretty clear that the visuals in the film that the film is made on low budget so I forgive that for a moment but what about the rest? Forced twists, a ridiculous first 30 mins with an item number and a hilarious climax. I mean what was going on in the climax man? Shiney is chasing the aircraft that does not even appear like it's taking off and our hero has all the world's time to even call a helicopter so he can quickly get on the plane that's supposedly taking off but doesn't look like. There's a lot of overacting in the film. Overall, a very shoddy film but then we can't really help it as this was bollywoods first try at such a film and now we have a better series available.

I am sure many may not like this film considering the kind of ridiculous stuff it has. But for me, this film is a guilty pleasure. Somehow I just enjoy the comedy and fun in this film no matter how downright stupid it is. The village part was the most hilarious part of this film. Everyone in this film overacts, but I enjoyed it for some reason. Also I feel this film was actually meant to be a parody kind of film targeted towards films sent to oscars.

It's a fun game to play with friends especially at night. You play as ghost hunters and using your equipments, you need to enter a haunted house and search for evidences for the type of ghost that resides there. Along with that you need to complete some objectives as well to gain more XP and money but the primary purpose is to identify the ghost type before the ghost can catch hold of you. This game requires a good amount of patience. Finding evidences can be tedious at times when the ghost is a bit lazy to start it's own paranormal activities in the house. Also, bigger the house, tougher it gets to find evidences . It's actually easier and fun when you play this with friends but becomes quite hard when playing single (The,reason being you can only carry 3 equipments and hence you need to keep replacing your equipments to get proper evidences. If you play with friends, they also can carry 3 equipments and you don't really have to take the pain to keep replacing your equipments). The game tbh is still quite buggy and its jarringly evident. Characters glitch out through walls, equipments when holding glitch out, characters tend to walk weirdly which is again a bug. The animations of the game overall is really buggy. The ghosts need to be designed a little better as they look straight out of mobile games. Also at times the evidences found by you and what the game says are totally different. Idk if it's a bug but today I was playing a round where I clearly detected Ghost Orbs through the video camera but the game says there was no ghost orb resulting in me selecting the wrong ghost type. Overall, good fun game but needs bug fixing asap. Also , I would absolutely love it if the devs added some jumpscares in the game. Oh that would make the game so much more tense and scary.

One of Salman Khan and AAZ’s best !! Brought out the best of Salman in this film . The emotions , the romance and the comedy all work pretty well but the thing that works best is the emotions . There is one scene where Salman , desperate to prove his love for Anushka, takes up MMA only to realise he is still unfit, he looks into the mirror , sees his fat belly and breaks down!! Bro this scene was absolutely executed well. That’s how nice the film was . Songs of this film , don’t have to mention all are till date chart busters. (Can’t believe this is the same AAZ that made a trash like BMCM)

High on style action, low on emotions . The very first thing that made the entire Hindi audience kind of cringe was its title numbering that despite coming after krrish 1, how come it is numbered krrish 3 and even i thought they made a mistake but the logic was this is the 3rd film in the originally Koi Mil Gya franchise. Still, the fact that makers changed the name of the franchise and then gave the 2nd film of the superhero a title Krrish 3 still makes no sense. Coming to the main film, this was promoted as a high on style and VFX film. Again they did a good job with the trailer giving away very little and we all thought this was going to be a game changing Bollywood film. Sadly, it was all style, no emotions. The base of the 1st two films was formed by emotions and bondings and Krrish 3 just chose to skip it. It was made only to show an action superhero film with some quality VFX, nothing else. This is why the story of Krrish 3 falls behind its prequels. Action scenes were superb and often the film did give off hollywood vibes with its evilish creatures and the main villian Kaal. VFX used was top notch. Some scenes were quite cringy including the most trolled scene , the intro scene where krrish saves a plane . The pilots and dialogues given to them was hilarious, unintentionally. Also, Krrish 3 often became preachy for no reason. Definitely shows the film is intented for small kids and not univeral audience. This is something that put the film down. Songs were not popular and instead were a bit cringy. A superhero film and we have weird songs like raghupati Raghav raja ram in dance mode and God Allah aur bhagwaan which was the most cringiest song to exist in a superhero film . Overall, Krrish 3 can be watched if you are a Krrish fan and more importantly following this franchise since Koi Mil Gya. However, it lacks universal appeal and feels more restricted to kids as in 2013 i had turned 15 and easily figured out the cringy preachy moments it had meant for 7-10 yr old kids. And lastly for love of God, stop comparing characters to superhero films you seen in Hollywood.

What scares you? A conjuring film or some Anabelle ? Well there is something even more scarier and bone chilling and blood freezing than ghost films..........it is man made horrors , one of which is nuclear attacks . Nothing is more scarier than witnessing a real nuclear attack sequence and it's aftermath. THREADS in general does not have any proper story. Its aim is to showcase the horrors of a nuclear attack by taking the camera deep into the affected region focusing on the destruction and aftermath of survivors and long term effects. You could say it was a then "Chernobyl" kind of film. Where THREADS absolutely froze my blood was the realistic visuals of the destruction and the shear horrific depiction of the survivors and the pain they undergo. Lots and lots and lots of scenes require you not be faint hearted because they are sure to make your heart skip a beat. I mean it's 1984 and with the barest amount of VFX , they achieved realism. Some scenes will just keep circling in your brain and will prevent you from sleeping at night. Such was the impact on me after watching this film that in between i had to take breaks to take a breath. The raw realistic photos of dead people, i mean just hats off to the artist who took so much effort to design those pictures to look straight out of a real nuclear attack. The closeups of dead burnt people, man their makeup and designs were just spot on . More than a film, it's a bit more on the documentry side because it does have some narration and a lot of written facts in between showcasing what exactly is going on. Overall, this has got to be THE EPITOME of horror films out there and more importantly, is an eye opener and a warning to all countries out there of the consequences of nuclear war. It's strictly not for children and people with faint heart. What makes it even more horrifying to watch is the current scenario where Russia and Ukraine are at war with each other .

This film was made at a time when Bollywood had no proper superhero film like Hollywood. Only shaktimaan and few others were there but they dominated the TV shows but a proper film, no, not that time. Many people in 2006 (due to lack of proper internet) werent aware that Krrish was the sequel to Koi Mil gaya. Only after watching the film they realized that. Krrish was an instant hit not only because it was a sequel to an already superhit film, but the fact that Indian audience got to witness probably its first proper looking superhero film on the big screen. the plot was also believable considering it inherits from its prequel hence krishna's powers were quite well justified. The plot was not only interesting , but also had good emotional moments especially when Krishna has to leave his grandma behind for job in Singapore (the first hindi film shot there). Songs were yet again superhit Pyaar ki ek kahaani being my favorite. Some places you can definitely tell that an invisible staircase is being used for Krrish to jump across but you got to remember it was 2006 Bollywood, not 2022. They still tried their best and in 2006 standards , the VFX and all were terrific. The climax was quite interesting, with Naseeruddin Shah becoming my favorite villian. There was also a twist about Krishna's father (which ofc by now everyone knows) which excited audience . All these factors helped Krrish become a superhit film. No superhero film from Bollywood till now has been able to set the base like Krrish did. Such was the craze of Krrish those days that i remember several products (one being DipTrix, a buiscuit-cream snack) provided free krrish masks to kids buying the products and in my school i remember students distributing DipTrix in their bday along with a plastic full of krrish masks.

Doom 64 is basically a slightly modified version of the original Doom which adds a whole bunch of new levels, 1-2 new demons and guns and whole new boss , the mother demon. The graphics of Doom 64 are nearly similar to the original doom but is slightly at a higher resolution. However, i missed certain things. One of them is the face of doom guy near the health bar. The gameplay is pretty similar to the previous Dooms but now they added some puzzles here and there to make things interesting which i liked. The map now has two versions instead of one (a original layout map and a sketch based layout). Coming to the demons, the looks of many demons have been slightly changed. What i found weird is that The Cacedemons look more like Pain Elementals and the Pain Elementals look like some weird stuff i have never seen before. Two new demons have been introduced one being a newer version of Imp (the original imp is also there) and the mother demon, the boss as opposed to the Icon of sin. The biggest disappointment for me was the exclusion of an iconic demon , the Archvile. No doom is complete without the deadly Archvile. Another thing to note is that to some extent the two big brothers Baron and Hell Knight are easier to kill and even the Pain elemental is easy to kill as compared to previous Dooms. Coming to weapons, one new laser based weapon has been added that uses the same ammo as BFG and plasma. It is worth pointing out that the BFG in this game for me atleast felt a little nerfed. Rest all weapons were not an issue. Also, will watch some youtube videos to figure out why after level 24, it jumps to level 28. Lastly, the BGM. A very interesting change made in Doom 64. All the older dooms had these metal / rock / jazz themed music but surprisingly Doom 64 has a rather low key music attempting to suit the environment of the level. This could be a hit and miss for many. Many may complain that the music is not adrenaline pumping enough to pump up players as they rip and tear while many would like the music of Doom 64 as a welcome change. Some levels have a creepy horrifying wailing noise from background that indeed gives chills. I liked this but me too missed the rock / metal based music.

Every 90s kids all time favorite movie thanks to a unique plot in hindi cinema in those days which was based on a human-alien relationship. The alien Jaadu would go on to become a cult character in India. Hence , you do not even have to mention the film name also, just say 'Jaadu' and instantly a 99 out of 100 in a community would recognize who it is. It was such a marvel for audience in those days to see the costume design of Jaadu which looked like modern day Avatar and how well it was designed that blew away 2003 hindi audiences who may have never seen such a thing in hindi cinema ever. This was Hritik's one of the very different roles he played and aced it to perfection . His love for bournvita not only became a highlight of the film but also promoted the brand to become super popular. His bonding with his grandmother Rekha, and his love interest Priti Zinta (who at that time was in red hot form) formed the foundation of this film. The songs too were excellent and memorable. Overall, this film was way ahead of its time. A reason why it suceeded was audience got to witness something new in cinema and till date this film remains a classic
